Welcome to our 35th Annual Production Sale. 2012 represented the 50th year Broken Heart Ranch has been in the registered Red Angus and Quarter Horse business. We appreciate the confi dence our customers many who are close neighbors have had in our programs in the past. We are certainly looking forward to the next 50 years of being in the Red Angus and Quarter Horse business! Cattle prices continue to be strong, and it looks like that trend will continue into the foreseeable future, with the United States cowherd inventory at a historically low level. As well demand and exports are both strong. Both the domestic and international consumers continue to want to eat high-quality beef! These economic factors have combined to provide good times for commercial cattle producers across the country. High prices have been recorded for both steers and replacement heifers. Red Angus females are highly sought after by cattlemen coast-to-coast and border-to-border. This is a testament to the tremendous female the Red Angus genetics offers. For 50 years our ranch has prided ourselves in breeding females that are feminine, highly maternal, with outstanding feet, legs and udders, and a nice, quiet disposition. They are deep sided, soft made cattle with plenty of length, muscle and bone. For us, these females offer a lot of longevity and the ability to raise market-topping steer calves who are effi cient, high-gaining cattle in the feedyard, and hang high-quality grading carcasses in the packing plant. They also produce no-fuss, lowmaintenance, efficient replacement females. The Pederson Family The calves were weaned in October. We will carcass ultrasound the bulls in late February and a supplement sheet will be available on our website, www. pedersonbhr.com. On sale day, the supplement will include carcass data, scrotal circumferences and updated EPDs. As well, we will be adding videos and color photos of the cattle to the website. After the fi rst eight bulls, the cattle are listed in birth order in the catalog. A sale order will be available sale day. The heifers have come out of the heart of our replacement pen. The bred heifers were ultrasounded by Dr. Pat Bierman, Mandan Veterinary Clinic, last fall and their due dates are noted in the footnotes of the sale catalog. We will be selling the open commercial heifers (lots 131-195) fi rst, then the bulls, and end the sale with our registered heifers. Helen and Ralph We d like to thank our hired man, Tim Johnson, for his help through the past year. Tim is a valuable asset to our ranch team, and we don t know how we could get everything done without him. Our great grandson/grandson/nephew, Logan Pederson, once again was here this past summer. Logan was a huge amount of help and we appreciate his assistance. Chad, Lisa and Bricelyn If you have any questions, or if there is any way we can assist you, please don t hesitate to contact us. The cattle can be viewed at the ranch anytime. Stop in and have a cup of coffee with us; we d love to have you. Check out website, www.pedersonbhr.com, for videos, color photos and further information. We look forward to seeing you on March 6th. Gary and Sue The Pederson Broken Heart Ranch crew

CRAIG OLSEN BULL TRIMMING (701) 527-9411 In Memory... Judy Bickel This past year, we lost our great friend and neighbor Judy Bickel to cancer. We are fortunate for having Judy Bickel as our neighbor and we are proud and honored to consider her our friend. Judy spent countless hours throughout her life volunteering and organizing church and community events. For the past 20 years she has helped with our bull sale. She did more for us on sale day than just help with the meal preparation. Judy had the special ability of calming everyone s nerves before the sale. She probably didn t even realize it, but her optimism and smile gave us that little bit of encouragement we needed. This is just the type of genuine person she was. After a visit with Judy and one of her hugs you always felt better. Judy s favorite Bible passage is Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. We dedicate our 2013 sale to Judy Bickel. Thank you for everything and our thoughts and prayers will always be with the Bickel family. Pederson s Broken Heart Ranch 7
Profit $implified... Multi-breed EPD base simplifies selection Since 2010, the Red Angus Association of America (RAAA) and the American Simmental Association (ASA) have combined their growth and carcass datasets to provide commercial producers with the most reliable EPDs in the beef industry. In the summer of 2012, RAAA and ASA adopted a common base for Growth (BW, WW, YW, Milk) and Carcass (MARB, YG, CW, REA, FAT) EPDs so that all animals registered in either RAAA or ASA can be directly compared regardless of breed makeup. What is BASE? For decades, each breed association has presented EPDs in their own language (the base). Base is no more than a reference point for any trait against which subsequent generations of animals are compared. The establishment of a base ensures that the population future generations are compared to remains stable, which allows the breedʼs genetic trend to be accurately identified. Raw Genetic Value + Base Adjustment = Published EPD Study Percentile Ranks Percentile ranks are an easy reference and therefore a powerful tool to assist you in becoming accustomed to the new multi-breed base. Red Angus EPD percentile ranks are presented along with all active animalsʼ EPDs, and reference how animals compare within their respective Red Angus subpopulations, i.e. Sire Summary Sires, Active Dams, Non-Parent Bulls, etc. Itʼs important to realize that although the multi-breed base allows for the direct comparison of Red Angus and Simmental EPDs, the percent ranks for Red Angus animals will continue to simply compare the genetics of Red Angus animals against other Red Angus. Thus, an animal that was in the top 10% for growth under the old Red Angus base will still be in the top 10% for growth in the new Red Angus multi-breed base. Example: In the past, you preferred to purchase bulls that had a -2.0 or lower BW EPD. Since a -2.0 on the old RAAA base represented the top 20% for BW, you now need to use -2.7 as your critical selection threshold as that represents the top 20% for BW on the new multi-breed base.

131 150 Purple tags GROUP 1 151 170 Green tags GROUP 2 171 195 Yellow tags GROUP 3 Commercial Red Angus Heifers This year we are doing something a little different with our replacement heifers. In the past we have taken them to Mobridge Livestock and sold them in the Red Angus sale in January. This year we are going to sell them here at our bull sale. We will have them sorted into three groups. We will offer them in groups of 10 and the high bidder will have the option to take a minimum of 10 or as many of the whole offering as they choose. The purple tags will represent Group 1 and their lot numbers will be 131 to 150. Group 1 is comprised of a top cut from our registered herd. Groups 2 and 3 are a mixture of top cuts of heifers from both our registered and commercial herds. Group 2 will have green tags and will represent 151 to 170 and the third group will have yellow tags and will be tagged from 171 to 195. All of these heifers will sell as commercial and if you are interested in the papers on Group 1 please contact us prior to the sale. A video of these heifers will be available on our website, www.pedersonbhr.com. AQHA 50-Year Accumulative Award Broken Heart Ranch, Ralph and Helen Pederson, Firesteel, S.D., By Richard Chamberlain Ralph and Helen Pedersons Broken Heart Ranch is a fourth-generation American Quarter Horse and Red Angus ranch operation near the north-central South Dakota town of Firesteel. Ralph and his bride, Helen, started ranching in the 1930s, and established Broken Heart Ranch at its current location in the mid-1940s, raising Hereford cattle, sheep and grade saddle and work horses. As their family expanded with the birth of sons Gary and Ron, the ranch expanded as well. The early 1960s were pivotal times for the ranch, with the purchase of their fi rst registered Quarter Horse stallion and mare and their fi rst registered Red Angus cattle. Today, the ranch has a small broodmare band of 15 mares a stallion and a ranch horse string, runs about 450 head of registered and commercial Red Angus cattle, and hosts annual production sales for both their cattle and horse enterprises. In 1958, Broken Heart Ranch purchased its fi rst registered Quarter Horse stallion, Scamp s Paprika (aka Pep ). Until that time, the saddle horse string and broodmare band comprised grade horses. Shortly after the purchase of Scamps Paprika, Ralph bought the good Royal King/ Plaudit-bred mare Travel s Blaze to serve as the foundation of the herd. Ralph surprised Helen with Travel s Blaze as her Valentine s Day gift, leading the mare up to Lisa and Chad accepted the AQHA 50-Year Accumulative Award on behalf of the Pederson Family. the house with a big bow around her neck! One of her foals, Moxie Bar by Bar s Dream, was the 1974 world champion in junior western riding as well as earning her AQHA champion title the same year. From the 1960s until 2010, Broken Heart Ranch also raced horses on the track, and has bred the earners of more than $226,000. While Broken Heart Ranch will likely be known for breeding and raising horses with speed, we focused on raising horses with nice demeanors, that are sound minded and sound structured, with muscle, hoof and bone, says Chad Pederson, Ralph and Helen s grandson. These were all the traits that made great ranch horses. By luck, these very same horses ended up having success on racetracks and in arenas around the country. Quarter Horses have provided our family with great working partners on our ranch, for which we have been beyond blessed. Our customers, particularly our ranching customers, and our own need for ranch and competition horses has contributed to our longevity in the AQHA, he continues. Some of the most memorable experiences raising the American Quarter Horse are the people you meet. Over the past fi ve decades, we have developed long-term friendships with many of our customers and competitors. There is nothing more fulfi lling than hearing how one of our horses has been in the same family for years. We feel the future of the American Quarter Horse industry is strong and bright, he says. There will always be a need for sound-minded, sound-made horses. As well, we now have a domestic and international public that has tasted how wonderful a life with horses is. Winston Churchill maybe said it best: There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man. Our American Quarter Horses have been vital to the success of our ranching operation, Chad concludes. We could not imagine running our ranch without them. They have been our best friends and our best ranch partners. It is deeply satisfying to check our cattle riding our American Quarter Horses.
